With its brightly colored flowers and their earthy scent, geranium has a well-deserved history of symbolizing hope. Now science shows us that ancient cultures who revered this flower were on to something: the oil of this common, hardy flower has a lot of healing properties.
For your little baby in the NICU, anything that eases the discomfort of growing helps increase their energy for building a better body and a more peaceful mind.
Many skin conditions cause inflammation, and that’s why we treasure the geranium in our BEB Organic Bubbly Wash and Diaper Balm.
Geranium helps muscle aches and pains. And respiratory infections. And helps relieve nerve pain[1]. It improves mental functioning and uplifts spirits.
Its oil helps protect little growing bodies with its antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory effects[2]. And it’s an astringent, to help build your baby’s skin.
Infections cause inflammation—not just at the wound site, but in the body.
And research continues to show that geranium can be more effective than anti-inflammatory medications[3].
Geranium’s anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties work against about 24 different kinds[4] of bacteria and help fight off the infections caused by them[5]—like the redness and swelling of baby acne, eczema[6] or diaper rash.
We created our BEB Organic skincare products because we know they help heal on many levels and in different ways.
Our organic geranium from Madagascar does just that—it promotes skin integrity and strength, but it also uplifts our biological health, emotions, and our psyche by[7]
- Reducing stress
- Helping balance hormones
- Easing depression
- Increasing circulation
- Lowering blood pressure
From those 300 daily diaper changes to that single 
sweet bath, geranium is one of our favorite ingredients to make your baby happy, their growth strong, and their skin luscious.
And don’t forget that just because our BEB Organic Bubbly Wash and Diaper Balm are designed for your little one, they help your skin and body, too (even if you’re not wearing diapers these days).
